Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to strain gages, and, more particularly to metal resistance strain gages having a high gage factor, which sometimes is referred to resistance-strain sensitivity.
- Metal strain gages are used for sensing strain at a surface to which the strain gage is mounted. The amount of strain is determined on basis of the change in the electrical resistance of an electrical circuit in the strain gage. Typically, the circuit is formed by a thin metal foil or a thin metal conductor arranged in a serpentine pattern. As the surface under investigation is strained, deformation in the strain gage causes a change in the electrical resistance of the circuit. Strain gages are said to have a strain factor, resistance-strain sensitivity or a gage factor (GF).
- GF gage factor
- the GF is the ratio of fractional change in electrical resistance to the mechanical strain.
- the GF can be represented by:
- AR is the change in resistance caused by the strain sensed by the strain gage
- R is the resistance of the unstrained strain gage
- 8 is the strain.
- the GF is no more than
- a metal resistance strain gage with a GF greater than 5.
- gages made from copper, nickel and manganese have a GF of approximately 2; gages made from iron, nickel, and chromium (Fe-36Ni-7Cr) have a GF of approximately 3; and, gages made from platinum and tungsten (Pt-8W) have a GF of approximately 4.
- Metal resistance strain gages with a GF greater than about 4 have not been available; however, there are non- metal resistance strain gages available with a GF greater than 4, but they have disadvantages such as high resistance-temperature sensitivity (thermal output) and non-uniform properties from gage-to-gage. Furthermore these non-metal resistance strain gages are brittle and must be handled carefully to avoid breakage.
- the present invention provides a high gage factor strain gage with a GF of at least 5.
- the strain sensitive metallic element of the gage has a composition, on a weight basis, in the range of approximately 63% to 84% Ni and approximately 16% to 37% Fe.
- a preferred composition is 75% Ni and 25% Fe (a stoichiometric composition); and a more preferred composition of the Ni-Fe alloy corresponds with the binary NieFe composition found in the LI2 region of the NiFe phase diagram illustrated in Figure 2.
- an alloying component is present in an amount that is less than about 10% of the chemical composition of the strain sensitive metallic element on a weight basis.
- the alloying component is preferably selected from among the group consisting of manganese, tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, and combinations thereof.
- Figure 1 illustrated a metal resistance strain gage in a configuration compatible with the present invention
- Figure 2 is a phase diagram for a nickel iron alloy suitable for use with the present invention.
- Figure 3 illustrated a face-centered-cubic lattice structure suitable for use with the present invention.
- Figure 1 illustrates a strain gage 100 in a configuration suitable for use with the present inventions.
- the strain gage 100 includes a serpentine strain sensitive metallic element 102 on an optional backing 104.
- the strain gage 100 includes connecting pads 106a, 106b for electrically the strain gage 100 to first ends of electrical leads 108a, 108b. Second ends of the electrical leads 110a, 110b are connected to known measurement instrumentation which applies an input signal to the strain gage and receives an output signal from the strain gage that corresponds with the strain induced in the strain gage 100.
- the metallic element 102 of gage 100 may be formed as a wire, a foil and etched or cut into the desired shape, or a metal applied to a backing as a thin film, for example by thin film deposition.
- the metallic element 102 is a metal with a chemical composition on a weight basis of approximately 63% to 84% Ni and approximately 16% to 37% Fe.
- the nominal chemical composition is 75% Ni and 25% Fe on a weight basis (a stoichiometric composition).
- the Ni-Fe alloy corresponds with the binary NieFe composition found in the LI2 region of the NiFe phase diagram 200 illustrated in Figure 2.
- the LI2 region 204 in Figure 2 is a Ni-Fe alloy that forms a face-centered-cubic crystal lattice 300 with nickel atoms 302 occupying face positions and iron atoms 304 occupying the corner positions as illustrated in Fig. 3.
- Some characteristics of this alloy such as, strength, magnetism, corrosion resistance, and electrical resistance are well known.
- a commercially available alloy comprising approximately 70% Ni and 30% Fe is used for resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) because of its predictable change in electrical resistance as a function of temperature.
- RTDs resistance temperature detectors
- Ni-Fe alloys were found to have characteristics, for example resistance-strain sensitivity (i.e., GF), that made them desirable for use in a strain gage and were unknown prior to the inventors' work.
- GF resistance-strain sensitivity
- the inventors found that alloys with a nominal composition by weight of 75% Ni and 25% Fe could provide strain gages with a GF higher than that of known metal resistance strain gages.
- the inventors also established that binary Ni-Fe alloys within the LI2 region 204 in figure 2 provided resistance strain gages with higher gage factors (i.e., a GF greater than 5).
- the strain gage may be formed by drawing the alloy into a wire or metal film vapor deposition of the alloy in accordance with known techniques for forming strain gages.
- these strain gages have an enhanced signal to noise ratio, which may advantageously enhance the ability to measure low levels of strain previously difficult to measure with an electrical resistance strain gage.
- the high gage factor (GF) makes it possible to achieve the same level of fractional resistance change (AR/R) as a conventional prior art strain gage such as Cu-44Ni-2Mn but at substantially lower applied strain level ( ⁇ ). This can provide several advantages including robustness and stability of the measurement system further comprised of the transducer spring element to which the high gage factor strain gage is attached.
